86_86324After the driver stopped the car, he quickly jumped out of the driver's seat and walked towards the Changan car.

I looked out of the car, and a few meters to the right of the Chang'an car was the embankment by the river, sparsely planted with a row of unknown trees. To the left of the car, there is another lane, and beyond the lane, there is the sidewalk. There is a row of iron bars in the sidewalk, and inside the iron bars, you can see several unfinished river-view houses.

Seeing this, I felt a little more relieved. There shouldn't be anyone hiding here, and it doesn't look like a thief's den.

Uncle Wang rolled down the window to see the driver's next move.

"Get off, here it is." The driver walked over to the car, squinted his eyes and looked around, and said to us.

Uncle Wang took one look at us, opened the car door and got out of the car. We also walked out.

"What are you doing here?" Wu Linyu looked around after getting out of the car and asked him.

"Is it to see the river view?" Zhou Zhihong lifted his glasses and looked at the river, and then threw out the questions in his heart.

The driver shook his head and said, "Don't rush yet, I'll tell you later." ”

"The car is parked here, locked, no one will find out, we said when we went into the construction site." He continued, and with that the driver crossed the road, onto the sidewalk, and climbed towards the row of iron railings.

"Are you still going?" Wu Linyu asked.

"Go, they're all here, and since this isn't a den of thieves, I'd like to hear what he's going to say." Zhou Zhihong replied.

"Maybe there's a den of thieves in the construction site." I joked.

"Follow along." Uncle Wang said, and then put on his back Qijiu Chong and took the lead towards the man. Uncle Wang caught up with the man's footsteps and climbed over the iron fence with the driver one after the other.

Climbing over the iron fence is a simple thing for us boys, and it can be completed in a few steps. After all, I had similar experiences in my childhood or when I was a student, such as going out to surf the Internet over the walls of school. Seeing that the three of us quickly climbed over the iron fence, Duan Ke did not show weakness at all, she rolled up her sleeves, half-bit her lip, and held the two guardrails with both hands.

"Be careful," I told her, "it's pointy at the top." ”

Before I could finish speaking, Duan Ke stepped on it quickly and skillfully, and then jumped over the guardrail and jumped in front of us. This set of coherent movements looks even more handsome than ours.

"Women don't let me shave my eyebrows!" Wu Linyu praised.

"When I was a kid, I used to fight with boys." Duan Ke patted the dust on his hands and said with a smile, "I didn't do much about going over the wall, at that time, my friends thought I was a man." ”

"I've been with me for twelve years, but I don't know if Duan is a girl." I jokingly told her, and followed the driver to the construction site further down.

"In 12 years, I was transformed in the fifth grade of primary school." Duan Ke shook off the hair that blocked his vision and replied to me.

The construction site was eerily quiet, and it was clear that work had been stopped a long time ago, and all the tools were neatly placed in place. I saw several excavators still working in their working posture, stuck in a mound of dirt not far away, waiting to open up land for the construction of the new building.

All the equipment in the construction site is quietly staying in place, waiting for the next start of construction.

After several days of rain, the construction site, which was already full of mud, is now muddy. We stepped on it with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it was very difficult to walk.

Zhou Zhihong walked very carefully on the muddy road, afraid that the mud would stain his newly bought shoes, no, they should be new shoes. But no matter how careful he was, it didn't help. Walking down the road for dozens of meters, the big Nike logo on Zhou Zhihong's new shoes has been stained with fresh soil and is almost unrecognizable.

"I've been in the flowers, and the leaves don't stick to my body." I looked at his dirt-covered shoes and deliberately retorted.

"When people walk on the construction site, how can they not get their shoes dirty." Zhou Zhihong answered very smartly.

The driver looked around the construction site and sat down on a pile of rebar. Next to the rebar is the unfinished building, which is full of scaffolding. A sign hangs on the scaffolding above his head that reads, "Please wear a hard hat when entering the construction site."

The driver gave us another cigarette and said, "The reason I told you to leave is because you have touched other people's things and the rules here." ”

The five of us were stunned for a moment when we heard this strange remark. Zhou Zhihong, who was lighting a cigarette, stopped his movements and asked, "What is it?" ”

"I mean the supermarket." The driver said.

"Rules?" Uncle Wang put the cigarette to his ear and asked him.

"Is there anyone else in charge of this supermarket?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm." The driver said.

"I'll just say, there's a policeman alive in this city." Zhou Zhihong bent over, wiped the dirt on his shoes with a tissue, and said to us.

"Not the police." The driver said.

The driver quickly lit a cigarette and said, "You guys are all questions, and I can't answer them, so I'll tell you at once, and you'll understand." ”

He took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "It's hard to tell, I say hurry." In this Icheon city, there are still a group of people, they have a leader, they have locked up the supermarket that still has things left in the city, and assigned them to themselves, if you want to take the supermarket things, go to them and join their team. ”

"Or else?" Wu Linyu held the gun and asked very unconvinced.

"Otherwise, if you are from the city, you will be driven out of the city. I don't know if anyone from outside is here, this hasn't happened yet. "But according to their old habits, if you are found out, you will not return the things to them, and they will forget it." ”

The driver replied, "Young man, don't look at you as a soldier, you are not afraid if you have a gun in your hand, they have a gun too." ”

No wonder the driver was so surprised to see the gun in our hands just now, it turned out that he had already seen it.

"What's the use of locking up the supermarket, isn't there still food in the grocery store?" I asked, not believing him.

"It's all locked, and if they can't find the key to the rolling shutter, they just move everything inside." He replied

"How many of them are there?" Uncle Wang asked him.

The man thought about it in his heart and said, "Twenty or so, I don't know, I haven't been there in a while." ”

"So many people?" Zhou Zhihong stopped polishing his shoes and looked up in surprise.

"Well, they've got a house that hasn't been sold yet, and you can live in it if you join them. If you count the women and old people in it, there may be more than twenty. He replied.

"And women and old people? Where did they come from so many people? I asked. It sounds like a survivor league, and I'd like to check it out if I could.

"Look everywhere, when the city got sick, there was a car around the city all day long, shouting slogans with loudspeakers, and slowly, the people who were still alive followed, and there were more people. But now, most of the people who are still alive in the city have followed them, except for me, so they are not looking for anyone in the city. ”

"Why don't you go?" Wu Linyu asked him.

"I've been there, but I've come out again." He took a drag on his cigarette and replied, "You think more people is good?" Their group, there is a hierarchy, you go in, you do whatever you are told to do, even if you are a good person, but if the people above are not good, you will become a bad person.

"They are holding down the food sources in the city, and if you want something to eat, you have to follow them. Moreover, if you go in, you basically can't get out, and if you are caught after escaping, the consequences are also very strict. But, basically, no one will run away, because it is so much better to live inside than to be alone outside. ”

"Isn't this a pyramid scheme?" Zhou Zhihong said.

"How can they know if the supermarket has been stolen?" Wu Linyu lowered his head and thought about it and asked.

"People drive around every day, you were lucky not to bump into them, if you stay for more than ten minutes, then maybe it's a good thing." The driver replied.

"Didn't you say that if you join them, you can't come out, so why are you still driving a truck outside?" I couldn't help but ask him.

The driver took the last puff of his cigarette, extinguished the cigarette butt and said with a smile: "Maybe they think I'm not very good at doing things, so I made a condition to them and quit." ”

"On what terms?" I asked.

"Help them clean up the dead people in the city, I have nothing to do all day anyway, every day I transport some dead people from the city out to bury, one day it will be clean, and when someone comes to this city, it will not be disgusting, and it will smell more comfortable." He replied.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but admire him. The driver's truck is indeed filled with dead people, but he is not a psychopath, but is silently doing good deeds without return, this is simply a sanitation worker in the apocalypse. In front of him, if he has the courage to do such a thing, he must have worked in a funeral home before.

"The supermarket and the store are all controlled by them, what are you eating?" After a while, Wu Linyu asked.

"They give me some on a regular basis, and I grow some of my own vegetables." He replied.

Uncle Wang cleared his throat and asked, "Then what do you think we should do now?" ”

"Negotiations? Or sum? It's like I'm making a movie. Zhou Zhihong said suddenly.

The driver stood up from the steel bar, patted the dust off his buttocks, and then Zhou Zhihong's words: "You don't need to say good things to them, they won't listen to them because of the large number of people." ”

"When someone finds out you've been in the supermarket, they're going to catch up with you, but not yet. They'll come to me and ask me about it. Well, you wait here while I go out and see what happens. ”

With that, he prepared to walk out of the construction site
